Abstract

As one of the most important dynamic excitation sources, the gear time-varying mesh stiffness is the key parameter of gear system dynamic model. So how to calculate the gear mesh stiffness accurately is of great importance. Based on Euler beam theory, this paper proposes a primitive calculation algorithm (PCA) to calculate the time-varying mesh stiffness of spur gears. A simplified gear model is developed based on nonlinear strain-displacement relationships, and a finite element program is used to simulate the gear's meshing stiffness. The rationality of this method was verified through finite element analysis. The results indicate that mesh stiffness plays a crucial role in controlling mesh deformation. In view of this, this study lays a theoretical foundation for further analysis of the vibration and noise of gears.
